Doppelgängers & Evil Doubles

About this list

There is no betrayal quite like your own face turning against you. The double is one of horror's oldest unsettlements — a twin, a clone, an impostor who knows your life and means to take it — because it attacks the one thing we assume is safe: that we are singular, and ourselves. This is a list for films where a character confronts a duplicate wearing their face, and only one of them gets to stay.
